Every campaign is quoted on request, based on your goals, the formats and the number of sends. Tell us what you have in mind and we'll send a tailored proposal within one business day.

Who writes The AI Brief?

Gizmodo's editorial team in New York. Every edition is reported, written and edited by journalists, with the same standards that have made Gizmodo one of the most recognized names in tech.

How far in advance should I book?

Presenting sponsor slots usually fill two to four weeks ahead. Quick hits can often be booked within a few days.
